All I Want

I try to stay distracted
To cast the thoughts aside
To push away the memories
But my heart just won’t comply
 
All I want is you to want me
To be the one that you adore
All I want is you to hold me
To be wrapped up in your arms
 
I want you so much I’ve been wishing
On every eyelash, every star
And every time I close my eyes
I end up right there where you are
 
All I want is you beside me
With our fingers intertwined
All I want is you to tell me
That your feelings match with mine

But I know its just a vision
Not reality by far
It was just a flicker quick to dim
Just a one-time shooting star

All I want is it to be real
To never wake up from this dream
All I want is you to love me
But you never will, it seems.
